WYOO is it too early for a G&T???

Its 16.05 here is sunny east sussex.

I have been working hard in the garden and now have to water,

I mentioned to (not so) DH that I would like a G&T when I did it and he was horrified.

Is he a numpty???

no its not too early.. aslong as there is a slice of lemon in it and ice to water it down...

Is 50 minutes really going to make that much of a difference?? (5pm being the usual time to break the gin out lol). Would he have been horrified if you'd wanted a nice cold long glass of pimms?

He's a numpty lol. I hope you had your drink!

are you really supposed to break the gin out at 5? i never knew that! I have always waited until at least 6...

I always thought you had to wait until 5pm ... until I joined the working world and we had drinks at lunch time ... so 16.05 is after noon and therefore ok!!!

Hope you got your drink

jx

I did get my drink but I waited until after the bath, got the dirt off first!!!

Waiting is for numpties. 4pm on a sunny saturday afternoon is a perfectly acceptable time for a G&T (although I wouldn't touch G&T with a bargepole)

I bet he'd be miffed if you clock-watched at a barbeque and made him wait til 5pm for a beer.

However I have a rather lax attitude to daytime drinking. I used to have pimms for breakfast before college, and the only two jobs I had involved heavy drinking. But it's not like you were planning to get rat-arsed among the shrubbery, so what does it matter?

Just asked M when an acceptable time to have a drink is and his reply was 'When you wake up.' And neither of us have had a drink on yonks! If a pair of tee-totallers approves, it must be alright, right?
